More Poverpol Experiments


(painted deli papers)


(hand-dyed fabric)

Q: What Are They?
A: I'm not sure, yet. Maybe nothing.

I still don't know if I have anything here except a curious series of photographs. One thing I did learn, though... don't wait for fabric impregnated with Paverpol to dry before you cut into it, because it turns to stone! All those lovely wrinkles I worked so hard to produce and I can't cut them with any tool I own!

(For scale, the one made of paper is about the size of a grapefruit and the one made of fabric is about the size of a fat orange.)

Hey, sometimes art wants to take you in bizarre directions... For now, anyway, I'm going with it. We'll see where I'm at once the Paverpol runs out, again.

New Fiber Art!

I bet you thought I forgot how to make fiber art, didn't you? Well, pshaw!


(hand dyed and painted cotton mounted on stretched canvas, painted cardboard embellishments)

(hand-dyed, deconstructed screen printed and painted cotton and silk mounted on Lutradur backing)

And just because I can't seem to stay away from my sketchbook...
